Projects
The cluster will provide scientific answers to the question: Which climate futures are plausible, and how can desired climate futures be realized?
CLICCS's integrating approach characterizes climate futures by focusing on two key dynamics and their coupling: The natural dynamics of the climate system and the social dynamics of society, which are coupled through mitigation and adaptation efforts. Accordingly CLICCS is now structured in four themes, social dynamics, mitigation, natural dynamics and adaptation. It is brought alive through 17 projects, each investigating fundamental aspects of climate futures.
